Victor Album C-20
Recorded in London, September 26 - October 27, 1932

ACT I
Prelude
Search throughout the panorama
Now Hearken to my Strict Command
Today we meet
From the distant panorama
We are Warriors Three
If you give me your Attention
P'raps if you Address the Lady
Come, Cyril, Florian, our course is plain
Expressive glances
Must we, till then, in prison cell be thrust
For a month to dwell

ACT II
Towards the empyrean heights
Mighty maiden with a mission
Minerva! Oh, hear Me
Gently, gently
I am a maiden
The World is But a Broken Toy
A Lady Fair, of Lineage High
The Woman of the Wisest Wit
Now Wouldn't you like to Rule the Roast
Merrily Ring the Luncheon Bell
Would you know the Kind of Maid
Oh Joy! our Chief is Sav'd
Whom thou has chain'd must wear his chain
Madam, without the castle walls
Walls and fences scaling
Some years ago
We may remark
To yield at once to such a foe

ACT III
Death to the Invader!
I Built upon a Rock
Whene'er I Spoke
When anger spreads his wing
This Helmet, I Suppose
This is our Duty
With joy abiding
